Queen of Servia.

The eK-queen of Servia was of coarse
rapturously received in Russia, especi-
ally at her old home, Kischineff.
Long before her arrival preparations
had been made by the inhabitants, and
on the day of her arrival the streets
Were crowded with spectators await
ing the royal visitor, In one of the
finest streets of Kischineff stands a
splendid mansion, formerly belonging
to the late Colonel Keschko, father of
the queen, and now inhabited by her
two sisters. The house is situated in
garden almost smothered in beautiful
plants and flowers. The queen as well
as her sisters, is passionately
fond of flowers, and the former has
done much to improve the garden.
The inhabitants of Kischineff are nat
urally very proud of the queen of Ser
via, and all kinds of anecdotes are told
about her. Once she is said to have
rescued little girlat Belgrade out of
the very teeth of mad dog.
The Russian medical men
at Kischineff who were in
Servia during the Russo-Bulgarian war,
say that the queen was day and night
to be found at the hospitals, and that
she never shrank from approaching ev-
en- the worst invalid. Deeply touched
by the sight of her former home, the
queen left her carriage at her recent
visit with tears in her eyes, and even
little Sasha, the crown prince, whose
education is left entirely in the queens
hands. seemed touched by the sight of
his mothers former home. The gov
ernor and the magistrates of the town
received the queen at the station, and
offered her the customary bread and
salt, the public meanwhile breaking out
i'm loud and enthusiastic cheers.

In an interesting essay, DIR. Dana has
said of the diet of brain workers:
When persons train for athletic sports
the diet is mainly heterogeneous and
rather a dry one. For those training
for mental work, and for brain workers
in general, the best diet is also nitro
genous one, but it should contain also
considerable fat, and should not be dry.
Water should be drunk plentifully,
while the total amount of food should
be little less than when severe mus
cular ex 3Teise is taken. The best foods
are meats, fish, eggs, milk, buttermilA,
| green vegetables and stale bread with
gently of butter. Ii there is ten
dency to constipation, farinaceous
foods and green vegetables may be
made the prominent articles of diet in
the daily meals, and stewed fruit and
some alkaline water adued. The drinks
of brainworkers should be mainly plain
and alkaline waters. Tea and coffee
are for scholars. wine for artists" &C
cording to Moleschott. and these sub
stances can be taken in moderation by
brain workers without harmful results.
They may even secure an increased
capacity for work. Some brain work
ers have been tremendous feeders.
Goethe was an immense eater; so were
Samuel johnson and William Words
worth. Peter the Great ate only two
meals daily, but they were very hearty.
and his daily consumption of alcohol
was, on an avera,e, four bottles of beer,
and from one to Two bottles of brandy.
